The Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) has postponed the release date of the provisional first list of admission to Class I. The first provisional select list was scheduled to be released on April 23. KVS has deferred the release date due to the unanticipated rise in active COVID-19 cases in the country.
